Novel & Cerita Is Vance Hopper Related To The Grabber

Revaline sat silently across from them, lowering her gaze to the carpeted floor. Calvin stared sharply at Ronald, gesturing for his trusted assistant to continue presenting the report. “Reporting, Patriarch, everyone,” Ronald began firmly, opening the tablet in his hand. “From the intensive interrogation of the two intruders captured at the apartment earlier, we finally managed to uncover Victor Vance’s identity. He is a former high-ranking figure in a dark financial syndicate in Europe whose business empire was completely destroyed by the late Grandmother Wen and Mr. Calvin ten years ago.”

Marcus edged closer. "That's not possible." "Harold would have been just a kid." "Precisely." I revisited the article. At its conclusion, I found a photograph. Two executives engaging in a handshake. One was the father of Evelyn. The other... An older gentleman with the same piercing blue eyes as Harold. The photo's caption read: Victor Vance, Founder of Vance Holdings. Marcus slowly raised his gaze. "Harold's dad." I sensed the final piece of the puzzle slipping into place.

Vance's heart skipped a beat, and he looked closer, realizing it was Darren's father. "Mr. Horton!" he called out involuntarily. Andrew Horton squinted in his direction, then walked over to open the gate. "It's me, Vance Bradford." Vance looked at the man's gray hair and felt his eyes sting. How much grief did it take to turn someone's hair gray like this before their time?

It sounded like he didn’t realize who I was before getting closer. I breathed a few deep breaths and wiped at the invisible mark on my jacket sleeve where Vance had grabbed me. “Do you want to report this or something? Vance shouldn’t get away with that. You can’t just go around grabbing people. What the hell was his problem?” he asked in a serious tone. “I can go with you if you want. Man, what an as****e.” I shivered, my body still reacting to the wrong feelings from Vance being so close.
